Some people say that Fu is the weakest Jinchuriki because her performance was indeed very poor, and she didn't have many outstanding moments from beginning to end.
But that was largely due to her background.
Takigakure, being a small village, lacked capable individuals and lacked the Jinchuriki.
Fu's ability to grow to the level depicted in the Original Work can be largely attributed to her own efforts.
Most of the Ninjutsu she uses are developed by combining her own Tailed Beasts, and among the many Jinchuriki, she is the only one who can use the Tailed Beast Chakra so easily.
The materialization of the Tailed Beasts even gave her wings, making her unique among the many Jinchuriki, which shows how well she was compatible with the Tailed Beasts.
The Seven-Tails Chōmei the only one of the Tailed Beasts that can fly. While its strength may not be comparable to that of the Eight-Tails or the Nine-Tails, it is not an exaggeration to call it the King of the Sky.
With her exceptional talent and Orochimaru's guidance over the years, Fu's combat prowess is among the best of her peers. If she were to unleash the power of the Tailed Beasts, almost no one could defeat her.
At this moment, Naruto, Jinchuriki, tasted the bitter fruit.
The two were not even on the same level, or rather, Naruto was being beaten on one side.
Fu used her flying ability to fly back and forth in the air, her hand seals never stopping as she unleashed a series of Ninjutsu attacks on Naruto below.
Previously, using scale powder in conjunction with Fire Style, they had wiped out Naruto's Shadow Clone in one fell swoop.
Naruto wanted to retaliate, and he could have used his Shadow Clone to throw the opponent away and reach him, but Fu simply raised her height slightly and dodged it.
They even kicked him when he landed, causing Naruto to fall face-first into the mud.
This was just the beginning. Fu transformed into a mobile artillery platform, continuously unleashing Ninjutsu at Naruto from the air.
Fire Style: Crimson Spider!
Unable to touch him and lacking ranged attacks, Naruto could only avoid his opponent's attacks to conserve his energy and try to deplete his Chakra.
However, his plan was doomed to fail. Unlike Naruto, who couldn't easily use the Tailed Beast Chakra, Fuko could fight Naruto for a whole day with an attack like this!
Sakura on the other side was also having a hard time. Karin's strength was far superior to hers. Not to mention that Orochimaru had taught her Chakra-Enhanced Strength a long time ago, Anko, who also possessed Chakra-Enhanced Strength, had taught her for a year.
Her Taijutsu is far superior to Sakura's, her Chakra is also unmatched, and her Ninjutsu talent is equally overwhelming.
Before receiving guidance from Tsunade, Sakura was quite ordinary and unremarkable.
Sakura felt sore all over after fighting for a short while, but the places where Karin's punches and kicks hit her were still throbbing, and even a mere graze left her with bruises.
"With your level of strength, you're participating in the Chunin Ninja Exams? Or is this the only level of Konoha that's possible?!"
With a flying kick, Sakura was slammed into a tree trunk, which dented deeply behind it.
Sakura coughed up a mouthful of blood, and a trickle of blood also spilled from the corner of her mouth, indicating that she had suffered internal injuries.
"How... how can he be so strong?"
No matter how unwilling she was to admit it, the red-haired ninja with glasses in front of her was indeed a cut above her.
Little did she know that Karin hadn't used her full strength yet; otherwise, she would have rendered Karin powerless to resist in just a few rounds.
Besides Naruto and Sakura, Sasuke, who was so confident just moments ago, is in an even worse situation.
Kidomaru, as the leader of the Sound Four in the Original Work, may not be stronger than Sakon and Ukon, but his battle intelligence is definitely higher.
For the first time, Uchiha Sasuke, who usually refused to yield to anyone, began to question the meaning of life.
Because of the Zabuza incident in the Land of Waves, and Sasuke's lack of a life-or-death experience with Haku, his Sharingan is still at the single Tomoe.
Whether it was Taijutsu or Ninjutsu, Sasuke didn't gain the upper hand and was even caught off guard by his opponent, who dealt him several hard blows.
At this moment, Sasuke's shoulder and forearm were slashed by the opponent's Kunai, and some blood was oozing out.
After exchanging a Taijutsu, the two sides widened the distance once again.
"Hehehe... Uchiha ninjas aren't any good either! You're already injured before I even got serious!"
As he spoke, Kidomaru licked the blood off the Kunai with his tongue. Although he didn't carry four long swords like Sakon and Ukon, the Kunai made it easier for him to use his skills.
This time, Uchiha Sasuke has encountered the multi-sword style ahead of time. If he encounters Killer B in the future, he should be mentally prepared.
"Hmph! Don't be so smug, the battle has only just begun!"
As he spoke, Sasuke's eyes widened, instantly transforming into Sharingan. He firmly believed that no attack could escape his gaze.
"Oh? So this is the Sharingan. I wonder how it compares to those two guys!"
He was naturally referring to Tayuya and Dosu, one specializing in Genjutsu and the other in Taijutsu.
I didn't actually fight them during that year; on the contrary, I was often dragged along to Sharingan with them in order to help them adapt to the Sharingan more quickly.
"Since that's the case! To show respect, I'll also demonstrate my strength!"
As he spoke, the Earth Heaven's Curse Mark on the back of Kidomaru's neck began to unseal, and black spot-like tattoos immediately appeared on his neck and face.
He was actually better at long-range ambushes, but if the opponent wanted to fight in close combat, he didn't mind playing along, especially since he knew it wasn't a fight to the death.
Not to mention that Orochimaru had given instructions not to kill the Konoha 12 if possible, just the fact that their team had Karin's cousin meant they had to give them some face.
As for why Orochimaru gave this order, they didn't know either; they just knew to do as he said.
This wasn't because Orochimaru had any pity, but because killing them now would not only affect the future plot, but also be difficult to explain when Tsunade succeeded to the throne.
Even if the other party doesn't say anything, it doesn't mean they don't mind.
As long as the goal is achieved, he doesn't mind going easy on them. The purpose of participating in this Chunin Ninja Exams is not to have them kill people, but simply to let them show the strength of the new generation in the Northern Lands.
Let them gain some experience and broaden their horizons. Since they won't be able to advance in the ranks anyway, I don't mind giving Tsunade some face.
On the other hand, the Heaven's Curse Mark can only be possessed by those with exceptional talent, and only those with exceptional talent can withstand it.
In the Northern Lands, there are not many people with the Heaven's Curse Mark; only Kimimaro, Haku, Kidomaru, Kidomaru, and Karin and Sakon and Ukon.
Sasuke wasn't too surprised to see the black spots on Kidomaru's face, assuming it was some kind of secret technique.
"Very well! I admit that you are worthy to be my opponent, Sasuke Uchiha!"
Without waiting for a reply, he charged forward again. With the aid of the Sharingan, Sasuke was able to catch the opponent's movements this time, but keeping up with them was still a bit of a struggle.
Sasuke, having awakened his Sharingan, managed to salvage the situation somewhat, but he was mostly forced into a defensive posture and continued to be overwhelmed by Kidomaru.
Just as he was suffering defeat after defeat and questioning his life again, Karin's voice suddenly came from the side.
"Hey! Kidomaru, you're way too slow here!"
The two who were locked in fierce combat heard the sound and glanced at the source of the noise. What they saw made them slightly distracted when Sasuke saw the person Karin was holding.
Kidomaru seized the opportunity and kicked him hard in the stomach.
The next moment, Sasuke shot towards the ground like a cannonball, only stopping when he crashed heavily into the ground, creating a large crater.
"It's not that I'm slow, it's that you're too fast! I've only just started..."
Kidomaru reluctantly withdrew the Curse Mark and also put away the shuriken in his hand.
Karin didn't pay attention to the other party's answer and carried the unconscious Sakura straight to his side.
The next moment, he threw the person he was holding onto the ground at Sasuke, who had just struggled to his feet, and then said:
"Are you going to obediently hand over the scroll, or will the two of us beat you up together?"
